Document: The copyright holder for this preprint . https://doi.org/10.1101/2020.04.06.20054239 doi: medRxiv preprint to note that only just over 7000 tests have been performed for a country of 283 million. There are a number of factors for low testing rates such as local policies, lack of resources and equipment and it is impossible to discuss them all; we point out that testing rates are extremely important in projecting the outcomes of the pandemic particularly in countries with large populations. In this context, if we look at countries such as the UK and India both of which have tested over 100000 tests, given the large populations and their case per test rate and death per test rate on 4/4/2020, both countries have projections for over 1000000 deaths.
